Sitting there watching the new HBO series last night, I couldn't help but laugh and think about the similarities.
The creators (the gods) and the hosts (their creations) have an interesting relationship.
The "hosts" are programmed to have free thinking but only up to a point. Just like the Witnesses. They make you believe that you have free will but do you? The only thing you ever study is their information. Even their Watchtower study, is people lining up their magazines, raising their hands and regurgitating the same information right back to them. If you do add some information other than what is printed you might get a frown or a weird look.
How ironic, was the part in the show that showed what happened to a "host" when they would go through some horrific experience and the creators or "gods" would just erase their memory of it!
The same crazy thing the Jehovah's Witnesses hope for!
Well, Sister Jones your parents and four kids all dead at Armageddon because they refused to follow god's rules. However the good news is, god in his loving kindness and (programming) mercy will erase every memory of them from your mind.
Yes! So you can now enjoy paradise without those pesky thoughts about all your loved ones.
Wow.... those creators/gods think of everything.
